I think XII's story is very similar to the second installment in the Final Fantasy series, because of I recently finished XII, and started playing the II straight after. I've noticed that the stories are closely similar, and XII takes a great reference from II. They talk about the Dreadnought, Imperials, Emperors, a rebel Princess and so on. Very closely entwined with XII's story.
What do you think?
I've never played final fantasy 2 but i have noticed lots of links to final fantasy 6 like sidequests and monsters i mean the name espers came from ff6
so did hunts like deathgaze:)
I think thats correctQuote:

Yeah, it contains a lot of backstory from the original FF's, and it's quite plain to see. I don't mind the fact that they used bits and pieces off of them, and it's quite respectful to the originals, you could say.
It feature references to all the FF games would take too long to name all I noticed
true, but it seems most closely to II than any other.Quote:

yeah, that's a play by play recreation of FFII's end-game storyline.... i'd imagine they would have kept going on with it (storming archades' castle, then finding out vayne has resurrected from the land of the occuria, more powerful than ever, to take over the world), but I'm guessing they couldn't fit all of that.
Even the aspect of having that 4th guest character is very II, and I enjoyed finding all those references because II's one of my favorites from the original 5.
I never thought of the guest character part, that's also a trait used from II. It makes you wonder what sort of traits in story will be used for XIII, from previous FF's, or will it be completely original...?
It's very much similar to II, although many of the Final Fantasy games follow somewhat of the same plot formula (that is, a group tries to overcome an oppressive organization).
This is probably incomplete, but the Final Fantasy Compendium has a fabbylicious list of loads of crossovers.
In-Series Crossovers
Its a good site.
You can easily find the NES ROM or the GBA Rom. Try the game. It's pretty good.Quote:
